THE ICC’s Film Club Screening

‘ANGEL’ – Written and Directed by Neil Jordan:

Produced by John Boorman (director of Deliverance, Excalibur and Point Blank): Starring Stephen Rae (The Crying Game).

Made in 1982. Length 90mins

In the course of a dalliance with a deaf teenager after a dance at which he had been playing, Danny, (Stephen Rae), a young saxophone player in an Irish Showband, witnesses the bombing of the dance hall and the killing of both his band's manager and the deaf girl by three masked terrorists. Using only his wits and the information he has observed during this traumatic event, Danny embarks on a nightmare journey of vengeance that comes slowly to dominate him - his music, his friendships and his love for Deirdre, the dance band's glamorous singer. He becomes both private eye and angel of death and pursues the perpetrators of this outrage to a shattering climax.

Cast includes Veronica Quilligan, Stephen Rea, Alan Devlin, Peter Caffrey, Honor Heffernan

About the Director – Neil Jordan: Born in Rosses Point, County Sligo, Ireland, Neil Jordan is an Irish film director, screenwriter, and novelist whose atmospheric work often involves violence and explores issues of love and betrayal. He won an Academy Award for best original screenplay for the film The Crying Game (1992), for which he was also nominated for best director. Neil Jordan wrote the script for his debut film "Angel" which won a special award for distinction in the 1984 Samuel Beckett Award for TV. He has also wrote and directed the award winning films "Company of Wolves", "Mona Lisa" and “The Crying Game”, “Michael Collins”, He directed “The Butcher Boy,” “Interview with a Vampire”, and “Breakfast On Pluto”.

“Confrontational, spare, and poetic, Jordan’s courageous foray into the dark psychic chasm at the heart of the Troubles remains an indelible landmark in Irish film”. Irish Film Institute.

This screening will be followed by a discussion and Q&A about the film, led by The ICC’s Film Club Curator Steve Martin.

Saxophonist Danny witnesses the murder of his band manager and a deaf-mute girl after a gig. Questioned by the police, he remembers only the orthopedic shoes of the killers' leader. So begins his quest to avenge her. He seeks an answer to the simple question 'Why?' but finds only more, and deeper, questions which resonate with the wider context of 'the Troubles'...
